Hi,

I would like to ask you, if you yourself are the author of this photograph? You put there summary:"Hula hoop moment from Circus Smirkus performance 2006. http://smirkus.org " but on the website of Circus Smirkus we read:"Photographs on the Circus Smirkus website are ©1987-2006 by The Circus Barn, Inc. and/or their respective photographers. All rights reserved. Except for .pdf files and forms indicated for download, no content from the Circus Smirkus website may be copied, downloaded or used without the express written permission of the copyright holder. " I would like to upload this photo to Wikimedia Commons, but without permission it is impossible, because I do not want to break somebody's rights.

File:SmirkusHulaHoops.jpg needs authorship information.
Dear uploader:

The media file you uploaded as File:SmirkusHulaHoops.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.

It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.

Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided),authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).


 * If you created this media yourself, please consider explicitly including your user name, for which: will produce an appropriate expansion, or use the own template..


 * If this is an old image, for which the authorship is unknown or impossible to determine, please indicate this on the file description page.

If you have any questions please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:35, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
